LPGA T&CP National Championship

In 1983, the first National Teaching Division Championship was held at Placid Lakes Golf Club in Lake Placid, Florida. The purse was $10,000.  This event was held every two years, alternating with Section Championships, until 1993, when the Championship became a yearly event.  The LPGA T&CP National Championship has since grown to become recognized as the premier tournament for women teaching and club professionals in the world, offering a purse of more than $80,000. 

The format for this 3-day event is 54 holes of stroke play in three divisions: Championship (6,300 - 6,500 yards), Challenge (5,900 - 6,200 yards) and Senior (50+ years; 5,600 - 5,800 yards).  The top six finishers in the Championship Division earn exemptions into the following year's Wegmans LPGA Championship, an LPGA Tour event.

The LPGA T&CP Championship festivities include a gala reception, a pro-am, a sponsor demo and other events, offering LPGA professionals a chance to network with their peers and include family and friends in the celebrations.
